My girls came home from Hebrew school with a super cute craft: an edible Hanukkiah (menorah)! Great idea, but I wasn't thrilled with the execution. In the first place, we are still in an ongoing pandemic. Edible projects you assemble with your hands might not be the best idea for kindergartners. Secondly, instead of allergen-friendly (or vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, etc) … [Read more...]
Homemade Applesauce
Homemade Applesauce is super easy, and tastes delicious! I make this recipe to go with latkes on Hanukkah (like my Baked Sweet Potato Latkes or Zucchini/Potato Latkes!), but it's delicious any time of the year. It's a great way to use up aging apples from the orchard or farmers' market as well! Homemade Applesauce Ingredients: 4 medium-to-large red apples (Macintosh, Honeycrisp, … [Read more...]

Stuffed Butternut Squash Roast
Every year someone asks me what vegans eat for Thanksgiving! First of all, just about every side and dessert is or can be made plant based (and that's the best part anyway, right?!) But I can understand the question. I can't exactly veganize a turkey! My family and I also aren't big fans of processed foods, including Tofurky or other highly processed grocery store items claiming to be a vegan … [Read more...]
Plant-based Thanksgiving Menu
We are excited to have our first Thanksgiving in our new home! We already adopted our annual turkey. This year the girls picked Alexandra! (Last year it was Anna & Elsa, the year before that it was Bowie, and before that Sandy…. I bet you didn't know I had such a big family! LOTS of turkeys! :)- ) I just finished putting together my Holiday Gift Guide, my girls are going to help me make … [Read more...]
Miso Glazed Brussels Sprouts
My husband and I have a long-running joke. We'll be eating at a restaurant (or since the pandemic, dining on take-out at home) and I will take a bite of something and I'll idly ask him "You know what version of [some dish] is my favorite?" And he'll answer "yours?" YEP! :) With a few notable exceptions, I usually prefer my own cooking to stuff we get out. I use less salt, sugar and oil than … [Read more...]
Dracula Bites
I've been obsessed with Dracula since I was a little girl (true story). I still have tons of Dracula books in the bedroom I had as a little girl and I've seen every Dracula movie you can think of from a kid on... yes, even Nosferatu, the original! It's a mystery why incorporating Dracula/vampires into my cooking took so long! :)= I had no plan for dinner. We had just gotten home from a … [Read more...]
Skull Pasta (Vegan & GF)
This spooky spaghetti is something of a tradition in our house for All Hallow's Eve. (My kids always request my vegan hot dog mummies for Halloween dinner!) It's so easy to make the "skulls" that it's become one of my go-to's for at least one night of Halloween craziness. (Who has time to waste in the kitchen when all sorts of spooky frights abound?!) The recipe, such as it is, basically boils … [Read more...]
